Where does the story fall in time…: A poem 

Did I call on love… 

in a life that left me standing alone 

What did I forget…even myself 

I didn’t even look at my shadow 

I turned it over, away from my feet 

that walked in their sinews, and in weariness 

but at least they didn’t break like my teeth! 

Do you know my fruits fell far away from my tree? 

So, I didn’t even bother, whether they were mine at all!

You think I want morbid dreams 

when I have sworn that I have no loyalties and expectations 

I can let love live by itself, in a corner 

Nobody can see that I have even ceased to love myself! 

I am like the bridge that wants no Passover 

Even if it has paid all the toll fees! 

I am a mountain that clings to the sky like an apparition, but not really  

And not ruddered to the earth 

And you thought I was flying 

when I was only floating in a matrix 

That has now ceased to exist for me! 

Was it all an illusion? 

Even God estranged from me! 

For how can I even think that I am even God 

when I am at the mercy of stolen identity?  

The singularity had a fault of vulnerability 

so, it also fell away from me! 

I am not going to persuade love to love me 

Even Bruce Wayne knew the folly of love. His Gotham was hijacked by treachery 

And his soul was taken to become my enemy 

There is spidery that makes his web a disillusion to thread-believe others into believing they are the sea and not he 

You think all that Saint Paul wants when he deceives  

is to go scotfree for his crimes, and keep punishing my dignity 

that I should never rise; but only rise to his occasion 

He can no longer thrust that Gomorrah and Sodomy on me 

But should there be weariness in my soul 

And should I know, the lesson is to own nothing and be alone and free 

that I begin to realise that I have no loyalty to misplaced duty! 

Even that wretched Albanese and the Labor Party shouldn’t capitalise, thinking I have dropped to my knees

I think it is a spiritual experience, my doctors think otherwise. I am a deeply spiritual person and keep having experiences with otherworldly realms.
